The town and Castellany of Mehun (Mehun-sur-Yevre) lies about one hundred miles south of Paris. It contains the remains of two towers, the lone remnants of a castle built by the Duke of Berry in 1386.
The Countship of Berry lies about one hundred miles south of Paris. It was a countship since the eighth century, but in 1358 I believe it was part of the royal domain. It was made a duchy in 1360 and given to Jean, younger son of King Jean II the Good.
The town and Province of Touraine lie about one hundred miles southwest of Paris. It was granted to Philip of Orleans in 1344, and in 1360 it was made a peerage duchy on behalf of Philip the Bold, afterwards duke of Burgundy.
The town and Countship of Blois is found about seventy-five miles southwest of Paris. I believe the holder in 1358 was Louis II de Châtillon, nephew of Charles de Blois who was the Duke of Burgundy.
